TRAVEL RECRUITMENT COOLS IN JUNE AS SUMMER HITS
Industry: Appointments       

C&M Travel Recruitment’s Activity Index – June 2024

(TRAVPR.COM) UNITED KINGDOM - July 11th, 2024 - Travel recruitment cools in June as summer hits

C&M Travel Recruitment’s Activity Index – June 2024

  • Vacancies see small monthly dip
  • Candidates and placements also fall back

Slight fall in new jobs

The number of new travel jobs being made available fell slightly at the start of summer, according to the latest figures from C&M Travel Recruitment.

The total fell by a small two per cent from May 2024 and by 26 per cent from last June.

Similarly, the number of new candidates searching for new jobs in the travel industry fell back by 22 per cent last month after reaching a 2024-high in May. June's number was also down by 11 per cent from the same month in 2023.

There was also a decrease in the number of people being placed in new travel jobs, with a 27 per cent monthly fall and a 35 per cent dip from June 2023.

Speaking about the stats, Barbara Kolosinska, Managing Director at C&M Travel Recruitment, said: "Summer is always a slow period for travel recruitment with many potential jobseekers and decision makers away on holiday. And with the Euros, Wimbledon and the Olympics offering even more distractions, this summer was never likely to break any records for jobs activity.

"But of course not everyone is away on holiday, so this creates a great opportunity for travel companies to snap up experienced talent while their competitors temporarily delay their recruitment plans.

"The run-up to a general election also always quietens the jobs market. Now that the votes are in and we have a new government in place, we envisage that things may pick-up as we enter the peak of summer."
